Module Specification Notes:
Note 2
With I2C interface selected, pull-up resistors on I2C SDA and I2C SCL must be connected externally as
per I2C standard.
Note 3
SPI interface (master) consists of SPI MOSI, SPI MISO, and SPI CLK. SPI CS is created by using any
spare SIO pin within the smartBASIC application script allowing multi-dropping.
Note 4
The BL652 module comes loaded with smartBASIC runtime engine firmware but does not come
loaded with any smartBASIC application script (as that is dependent on customer-end application or
use). Laird provides many sample smartBASIC application scripts covering the services listed.
Additional BLE services are being added every quarter.
Note 5
Use of the internal DCDC convertor or LDO is decided by the underlying BLE stack.
Note 6
These figures are measured on the BL652-Sx-xx.
Deep Sleep current for BL652-Sx-xx ~400nA (typical)
Standby Doze current for BL652-xx-A1 1.2uA (typical)
Note 7
PWM output signal has a frequency and duty cycle property. PWM output is generated using
dedicated hardware in the chipset. There is a trade-off between PWM output frequency and
resolution.
For example:
PWM output frequency of 500 kHz (2 uS) results in resolution of 1:2.
PWM output frequency of 100 kHz (10 uS) results in resolution of 1:10.
PWM output frequency of 10 kHz (100 uS) results in resolution of 1:100.
PWM output frequency of 1 kHz (1000 uS) results in resolution of 1:1000.
Refer to the smartBASIC user guide for details. It’s available from the Laird BL652 product page.
